Learn about our core beliefs and driving forces behind what we do and why we do.
God The Father
We believe in God the Father, an infinite, personal Spirit, perfect in holiness, wisdom, power, and love. He concerns Himself mercifully in the affairs of humanity, hears and answers prayer, and saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ.
God The Son
We confess Jesus Christ as God the Son, the second person of the Trinity, fully God and fully man. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, performed miracles, died on the cross for our sins, rose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven, and will return in glory.
God The Holy Spirt
We acknowledge the Holy Spirit as the third person of the Trinity, who convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment, regenerates, sanctifies, and empowers all who believe in Jesus Christ, and indwells every believer, guiding, teaching, and equipping them for godly living and service.
The Sin Condition
We affirm that all people are sinners by nature and choice, alienated from God, and under His wrath. Only through God’s saving work in Jesus Christ can we be rescued, reconciled, and renewed.
The Gospel
We proclaim the gospel as the good news of God’s saving grace through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, offering forgiveness of sins and eternal life to all who repent and believe.
The Great Commission
We are committed to fulfilling Christ’s Great Commission to make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey all that Christ has commanded.
Santification
We believe in the ongoing process of sanctification, whereby believers are progressively conformed to the image of Christ, growing in holiness and godliness through the work of the Holy Spirit and the practice of spiritual disciplines.
The church
We affirm the Church as the body of Christ, a spiritual family made up of all believers, called to worship God, nurture one another in faith, and witness to the world about the love and truth of Jesus Christ.
The Return of Christ
We anticipate the personal, visible, and imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will complete the work of redemption, judge the living and the dead, and establish His eternal kingdom.
The Bible
We uphold the Bible as the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God, the supreme and final authority in all matters of faith and conduct.

Statement of Faith (Continued)
Water Baptism
We affirm the sacrament of water baptism as a symbolic act of obedience, signifying the believer’s death to sin and new life in Christ.
Holy Communion
We uphold the practice of Holy Communion as a means of grace, commemorating the sacrificial death of our Lord Jesus Christ and fostering a sense of unity among believers.
There are Ten Commandments, not nine
We assert that the Ten Commandments are a complete and indivisible moral code, given by God to guide our conduct and establish a standard of righteousness.
Salvation in Christ, not a denomination
We believe that salvation is found exclusively in Jesus Christ, not in any denomination or human institution, and is granted by grace through faith.
Apostolic Tradition
We value the traditions of the Apostles and the early Church as useful resources for understanding and applying the teachings of Scripture in our lives.
True Discipleship
We recognize that not everyone who professes faith in Christ will enter the Kingdom of God, but only those who genuinely submit to His lordship and obey His commands.
Love as Christ Loved
We are committed to loving one another as Christ loved us, demonstrating selfless, sacrificial love in our relationships and interactions.
There are only two genders
We affirm that God created humanity in two distinct genders, male and female, each reflecting unique aspects of God’s image.
Marriage Covenant
We uphold the sanctity of marriage as a covenantal union between one man and one woman, designed by God to reflect the relationship between Christ and His Church.
The role of Women in the Church
We adhere to the biblical teaching that while women are valued and gifted for ministry, they are NOT to teach or exercise authority over men within the church assembly.
